There are 5 Show Rods that were corvair powered. I have the Meter Cheater, Guber Wagon, and Patent Pending. I know the Moon Mixer is the fourth one. Does anybody know what the last one is?  Pokey |

There are more than five Corvair-powered show rods, but the last one in the series of Corvair-powered horseless carriages is the T-Bone Stake. The Barris T-buggy from AMT and most of the Revell Buggies were Corvair-powered, as well.

Well you got lucky because the Depth Charger is coming out again, but then there is the Flameout and the Koo Koo Car also.

Not much of a "Show Rod', but the "Grand Turismo" is also 'Vair' powered....

Or MPC's V Rod Street Buggy! Essentially a T Phaeton with a Corvair lump out the back.

My version of the T-Bone Stake got VW power, a drag-style torsion-suspended front axle and the payload from an AMT fruitwagon.    Ohhhh, that's wild! I LOVE it! Beautifully built...I really wanna build one of these! |

It's such a shame that Photobucket fuzz everything up so we can't see anything properly!
